Power to believe


Looking into the abyss

What do I see?

I see me

Wearing my ugg boots

And skinny jeans

“I am pretty”

I say

“I am smart”

I say

“I am me”

I say

 

Believing is hard

But believing is power

Now I have the power

The power to believe…

The power to believe that I am beautiful,

The power to believe I am Flawless

The power to believe that I matter.
